Dido blinks. "I can actually use ShelLancer? Sweet!"
[TIMMMMEEE SKIPPPP!]
ShelLancer and presumably Scaraber are standing on one of the Star Rose's launching ledges, looking out at the blue earth below and the unblinking stars above. It's quite beautiful.
"So!" Dido remarks. "Not to toot my own horn, but I did a bunch of reading on orbital mechanics! The first rule of orbital spaceflight is always keep your velocity up, so that you don't fall into the atmosphere and burn up. Does that sound right?"
